Delta and the Environment

By introducing indicators such as the intensity of electricity consumption, water consumption and GHG emissions, this section presents an objective look at Delta's environmental performance over the past three years and provides a basis for future improvements.

Trends in Electricity/Water Consumption,
Greenhouse Gas Emissions and Intensity

As Delta has grown over the years our electricity and water consumption have grown as well. The question is whether our use of water and electricity has become more efficient over time. We used Delta Group's revenues as a parameter to calculate electricity/water consumption and GHG emissions generated per millions of USD in production output between 2004 and 2006. The results of these calculations are provided below:

	1. Electricity Intensity Delta's electricity consumption and intensity trends between 2004 and 2006 are shown in the graph. Electricity consumption per million USD of production grew from 71,100KWH in 2004 to 79,000KWH in 2006, with the increase between 2004 and 2005 being higher than the increase between 2005 and 2006. This indicates that our electricity consumption has outgrown our revenues so we must pay attention how efficiently we use electricity.
	2. Water Intensity Delta's water consumption and intensity between 2004 and 2006 are shown in the graph. Water consumed per million USD of production decreased from 1396KL in 2004 to 1252KL in 2006. This indicates that our revenue has outgrown our water consumption over the three years, representing around a 10% improvement in our water efficiency.
	3. Greenhouse Gas Intensity Delta's GHG emissions and intensity trends are shown in the graph. The amount of GHGs emitted per million USD of production output increased from 56.93 tonnes of CO₂e in 2004 to 62.15 tonnes of CO₂e, with the increase between 2004 and 2005 higher than the increase between 2005 and 2006. This corresponds to the previously stated electricity consumption and intensity trends and tells us that the amount of our GHG emissions is increasing at a faster rate than our revenues. This is a reminder that more effort is required.
